• To measure nuclear power, taking into account its proportionality of neutron flux density, so-called neutron detectors (ND) are used, located inside the core and outside the reactor vessel. • Accordingly, they are called in-core and excore neutron detectors. • In-core neutron detectors are located in the central tubes of the fuel magazines selected for this purpose.

• To register ionizing radiation, various methods are used based on measuring the result of interaction of radiation with matter. • For example, gamma quanta form fast electrons in the detector material due to the photoelectric effect, Compton effect or electron-positron pair production. These electrons are recorded due to the ionization caused by them. Control in safety 24

• Neutrons are detected by a two-step process, since the interaction between neutrons and electrons, due to their magnetic moments, is very small and can not lead to the ionization of atoms when neutrons pass through matter. • Neutrons can be registered as a result of a nuclear reaction, accompanied by the emission of charged particles, which are fixed by the detector. • Thus, for neutron detection it is necessary to have a radiator containing nuclei by which a reaction occurs accompanied by the emission of charged particles.

• Due to the fact that it is necessary to register neutron radiation and, in some cases, gamma radiation in the operating reactor, the number of methods that have found practical application is limited. • As "detecting", reactions (n, a) and fission reaction of uranium-235 (fission chambers) are most often used. • To detect secondary particles (а-particles, fission fragments or electrons) formed as a result of the interaction of neutrons or gamma quanta with matter, the ability of charged particles to ionize gases is usually used.

• By placing the electrodes in the form of two plates or cylinders in a gas containing volume and applying an electrical potential difference to them, we obtain current proportional to the number of charged particles and their ionizing ability. • Such equipment for detecting particles has been termed an ionization chamber. • Ionization chambers (IC) are used for detecting neutrons, which are divided into pulse an d current chambers. Control in safety 28

• In a pulsed type chamber, each detected particle produces a current pulse (counters). • Current chambers are devices that record the average level of radiation. The current of the ionization chamber is determined by the intensity of the radiation. • As a rule, ionization chambers and counters are used to measure neutron flux outside the core (in dry protection), that is, leakage neutrons from the core are measured. • The operation of ionization chambers is based on the collection of ions that arise when passing through a chamber of ionizing radiation. • When gas is irradiated with ionizing radiation, two processes occur: ionization and recombination.

• When a charged particle passes through a substance, its electric field interacts with the electron shell of the atoms. As a result, some electrons are detached from the atoms and positive ions are formed on the path of the particle. • When passing through matter, electromagnetic radiation (y-quanta) is absorbed as a result of Compton scattering and the formation of electron-positron pairs. In each of these processes, charged particles (electrons, positrons) appear that are capable of ionizing atoms of the medium. Control in safety 30

• To register neutrons in the ionization chamber, a radiator substance is introduced - a layer of amorphous boron or fissile material deposited on one of the electrodes or on both. • It is customary to call an ionization chamber with a fissile material layer a fission chamber. • Gamma quanta that enter ionization chamber form electrons in gas and electrode substance. Secondary electrons ionize gas and electric current is created in the circuit. • Since neutron radiation in the reactor is always accompanied by gamma radiation, special measures must be taken to separate the signal from the neutrons and compensation of gamma background.
